NBA superstar Kevin Durant has recently been offered an incredibly hefty package from sportswear manufacture Under Armour. The deal, which is in the $265 million through $285 million range (over 10 years), also consists of other incentives, one of which being the building of a community center in Durant's mother's name. Nike, Durant's current shoe sponsor, has the right to match the offer, per the terms of his existing contract. Durant initially signed a seven-year/$60 million deal with Nike, earning him $8.5 million annually.

It will be interesting to see how much Under Armour's incredible financial offer plays a role in Durant's decision of whether to jump ship from Nike, or if Nike decides to even match the deal, since no decision seems to have been made.
